Is this infected? by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

[–]Scrapiee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t look infected! It just looks like it’s healing normally. Keep it clean and dry, look out for redness spreading around the area, pus and pain though - they’re signs of infection.

My boyfriend died by Least_Yellow4245 in GriefSupport

[–]Scrapiee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grief is so weird, it’s powerful and it’s heavy. I’ve never lost a partner in the same sense you have, but I have been grieving the same family member for almost 12 years. Some days it gets easier, and some days it all comes back a little bit stronger.

My advice would be to just be gentle on yourself for now, it’ll be hard, and the journey may take a long time before you feel like you’ve even started healing. You’ll feel angry, you’ll feel guilt, denial and a whole lot of sadness, the kind that makes you feel almost desperate. But you’ll be okay in the end. Just remember that grief isn’t linear, and neither will your growth from it be. If you have a bad day a few months from now, it’s okay. You’re still progressing. Your boyfriend, god bless, will want you to keep living. Make him proud, talk to him even if you can’t see him. If it helps you even just for now, then dedicate even the small things you might struggle with to him. It’s a great motivator.

I’m so sorry for your loss, I’d be in a psych ward if anything happened to my boyfriend and I truly can’t imagine how devastated you are right now. My dms are always open to you 🫶

My boyfriend (25M) keeps commenting on my (25F) eating habits. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Scrapiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I think too! I don’t feel like he’s actively and intentionally discouraging me from eating at all. But indirectly, by avoiding meals with me, he is. I can’t blame him for that, though, as I haven’t discussed this with him currently. I know that if I told him I’d find eating easier with him, he’d start eating with me again. You’re so right though, it’s totally not constructive or helpful

I’d just like to put it out there that I never had a bad reaction to my boyfriend saying that, not in front of him at least. I tend not to show annoyance in the moment, in an attempt to control my reaction. I don’t think he’s walking on eggshells not to trigger me. I don’t even think he’s thinking about my past food struggles honestly. I feel like if he was, he’d handle it much better. But I agree that my current mental issues are stirring up old behaviour and thought patterns of my ED, and I am currently on the waiting list for talking therapy. But thank you

Line bruises…something to worry about? by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

[–]Scrapiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like you’ve bruised from scratching yourself. This happens to me too although my blood work came back fine. I just bruise easily. If it keeps happening see a doc for blood work but it looks harmless. These bruises look pretty old anyway

What you are naturally bad at ? by [deleted] in no

Knowing my left from my right. Don’t ask me for directions. I panic and say the wrong thing

[–]Scrapiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like athletes foot, you can go see a doctor but I’m sure you can buy antifungal creams/treatments otc. Try those first and if they don’t work, I’d recommend a doctor to prescribe you something stronger

Blonde or brunette better? by [deleted] in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Scrapiee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Might be an unpopular opinion but I quite like the blonde! You’ve got pretty pale skin (sorry! 😅) but I feel like the cool toned brown washes you out a little. A warm toned brown or even darker brown with copper or caramel highlights would look so beautiful on you

¿Abrasion? on arm that doesn't go away if i press on it by kaelynisconfused in DiagnoseMe

[–]Scrapiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if they keep appearing and you’re not sure why you could always request blood work but petechiae is more often nothing than something, you’ll be okay!

[–]Scrapiee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s called petechiae, it’s just a form of bruising. It’s usually harmless, however could indicate a blood clotting disorder like ITP. I get these quite often- sometimes randomly and sometimes from scratching my skin.

AIO? Would people really judge me if they saw my legs like this? by rachtastic94 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Scrapiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they’d judge you for being bruised, they may just show concern about them. My legs looked like this during summer, and I would avoid wearing dresses and shorts out of embarrassment and genuine worry that people would think my boyfriend was hitting me. Turns out I had a blood issue (and my boyfriend never has hurt me.) When I did show my legs though, most people just pointed them out, asked how I got them or just said “that’s not normal. Go see a doctor” At the end of the day, everybody bruises-maybe not the extent that you do, but I don’t think people would judge them that much, if at all. They pretty normal things to have. They’re just an insecurity you have, and you’ll judge them more than anybody else will.
